The apartment was everything we could have wanted for our stay in Switzerland. We were a family of 5, children 10 - 17yrs, visiting the area for the first time, wanting to have a fun, family holiday.

The location of the property made it very easy to walk to the train station, cable car, taking you up to Murren, and do a bit of food shopping at the local Coop. The local swimming pool is a 10 minute walk, and is definitely worth a visit.

We used the kitchen every night to cook and it had all we needed, as well as a kitchen table to all sit around. The boys enjoyed coming “home” in the evenings, after a busy day of hiking and activities, and watching the DVDs available in the apartment - some even in 3D!

Every window was like a picture and we felt we were definitely in the heart of the valley with the sounds of cow bells and waterfalls, and the views of the mountains.

Communication with Augustine and Celine was very good right from when we made our booking. We were met by Celine on arrival who was very welcoming and showed us around the property.

A great place to base yourself when exploring the Jungfrau region. Comfortable and well-supplied with all equipment required, it is only a matter of minutes from Lauterbrunnen train station - from where you can access trains, cable cars and hiking trails galore.

We've only been gone a day or so, and we're all missing our end-of-day cold beers on the balcony staring at the Staubbach Fall.

Augustin is a great host and very responsive. He went the extra miles to let us know the different events in town so that we can enjoy them. We were lucky to arrived August 1st and was able to enjoy the fireworks!

The apartment was very comfortable for the six of us. It has everything we need and with a great view. WIFI signal was very good! Kitchen is fully equipped.

We had a wonderfully time and definitely book it again if we come back in the future. Thank you again ….

Thank you Tsing Chen for your review appreciating your stay in Lauterbrunnen . Glad to know you enjoyed your stay in Lauterbrunnen. If you had come one day earlier you could have participated in the National Day celebrations in Interlaken

which starts at 10 with folk lore singing, flag throwers, alpine pipe music , speech of the Gemeinde president in 4 languages, arrival of the flyers from the mountains holding 26 flags and landing on the Hoheweg grounds etc. At 14 hrs you can also see a procession with traditional dresses, William Tell characters, cows, bell ringers, and other items of history . During the Casino ground celebrations you get free Rugen Brau beer of the locality. But still you had time to enjoy the fireworks near the waterfall from the balcony which is indeed a wonderful spectacle. Wish you all the best for the future.
